Good capture of an interesting public statement. Did anybody go up to them
and query them as to what they wanted? The right to own slaves, chain them,
whip them, and worse? What part of land of the free do they not comprehend?

Parts of the USA are indeed odd.

In Ireland where we're about to have a general election in which water
charges will be a big issue. The last couple of years have been filled with
demonstrations of groups of people outside government buildings chanting in
protest against the installation of water meters. Whenever I see them I tend
to go up to them and congratulate them on their efforts, adding that I don't
see why I should have to pay for filling my swimming pool, washing my fleet
of cars, and that water meters and charges are indeed a bad thing. Their
nonplussed faces say it all.

Mind you in SC they can carry guns too so maybe a similar approach might be
dangerous

PPS I don't have a swimming pool and only own two cars :-)
